An offensive coordinator typically refers to a coach on a football team in the National Football League (or at others levels of American football) who is in charge of the offense. This position aids the head coach a great many ways by delegating play calling to other coaches and allowing the head coach to focus on overall play and more important issues during games and practice sessions. In the NFL there an offense coordinator usually has several assistant coaches working under him: a quarterbacks coach, a running backs coach, a receivers coach, and an offensive line coach. At lower levels an offensive coach may also coach some of these positions, or one assistant coach might be responsible for more than one position. Some NFL teams have their offensive plays called by the offensive coordinator, but some have their offensive plays called by the head coach. This often depends on whether the head coach comes from an offensive background or a defensive background.
